The AMA allows Pakistani citizens to open a bank account digitally using any mobile operator's SIM, and the platform has recorded over 5.7 million AMA accounts with transactions worth over Rs. 42.9 billion.

پاکستان ڈیفالٹ کے دہانے پر؟ سابق وزیر خزانہ مفتاح اسماعیل نے خبردار کیا ہے کہ اگر ملک نے مدد کے لیے آئی ایم ایف سے رجوع نہیں کیا تو سنگین نتائج برآمد ہوں گے۔ لیکن موجودہ وزیر خزانہ اسحاق ڈار کا اصرار ہے کہ آئی ایم ایف حکومت کو حکم نہیں دے سکتا اور وہ ان کی مدد کے بغیر "کوئی
مسئلہ نہیں" کا انتظام کریں گے۔ برآمدات 31 بلین ڈالر اور ترسیلات زر 30 بلین ڈالر، اور آمدنی اور اخراجات میں 19 بلین ڈالر کے فرق کے ساتھ، کیا پاکستان کا چین پاکستان اقتصادی راہداری (CPEC) پر انحصار اپنی اقتصادی ترقی کو محفوظ بنانے کے لیے کافی ہے؟ ایک پروفیسر مقامی صنعت کو سپورٹ

The Pakistani government has decided to use all legal means to recover PKR 447 billion in unpaid Gas Infrastructure Development Cess (GIDC) from commercial and industrial entities.

Read 🧵 below 👇
The Supreme Court of Pakistan ordered the recovery of all GIDC accrued by 2020-21 and suspended future GIDC until all outstanding amounts were recovered. However, 3,194 petitions in various high courts are hindering the recovery of PKR 420 billion.
The government may also lose the power to collect GIDC if it fails to carry out development projects, such as pipelines from Turkmenistan, Iran, or from Karachi to Lahore, depending on the international and political environment.

See 🧵 below👇
This has led to a severe curtailment of other expenses and an alarming increase of 83% in the interest cost on the Rs50 trillion federal government debt stock.
The risks of sovereign defaults are very high in the absence of an International Monetary Fund (IMF) umbrella and no major cash handouts by bilateral creditors.
